This morning while walking in the gardens morning mist (it is
usually fog, but this morning it's steam), I came upon a recovering
cauliflower (pre-FePO4 treatment, gotta do it every 2 weeks) that
has purplish-orange eggs (one group of 3 and another of 7) on the
underside of its' leaves. Doesn't match description of cabbage
worms. Probably innocuous, right? Or is this where I bring out the
Sevin, flame throwers, and a tactical nu-clee-ar device?
Oh hell, just squish them, or remove part of the leaf. ;-)
That was just one plant that is recovering from some heavy grazing.
My cabbage patch has 5 more cauliflowers and a dozen cabbages. I was
hoping to avoid doing daily physicals on the Brassica;o)
